About us

It started with a frozen water bowl.

Two friends. One snowy morning. And a dog that refused to drink.

One winter, we noticed something small—but important. Every time we let our dogs outside, their water bowls froze solid within minutes. We kept refilling them, swapping bowls, moving them closer to the door. Nothing worked. Our pets were thirsty, and the problem felt strangely ignored.

That’s when we asked a bigger question:
Why hasn’t anyone solved this properly?

With backgrounds in engineering and product design, we took the problem into our own hands. What started in a garage quickly turned into late nights of testing heating elements, improving energy efficiency, and sourcing pet-safe materials. Our goal wasn’t just to keep water warm—it was to make something reliable, safe, and effortless.

After months of trial and error, we created a heated pet bowl that prevents freezing, uses minimal energy, and works in any outdoor setting.

But the idea didn’t stop at winter.

We realized hydration is one of the most overlooked parts of pet health. By keeping water accessible year-round, we weren’t just solving a cold-weather issue—we were helping pets stay healthier every single day.

What began as a frozen bowl on a winter morning became a mission:
to keep pets hydrated, comfortable, and cared for—no matter the weather.

Sometimes the best business ideas don’t come from boardrooms.
They come from real life.
